Sen. Bill Cassidy: 'I would just introduce a free-standing bill that protects people with pre-existing conditions. I'm a doc, I worked in a charity hospital system in Louisiana for 25 years. They should be protected. We all have pre-existing conditions.'

Yes, they should, and you have no idea how to do it. You are suggesting a return to the models before the ACA as though they actually worked. Solving this problem requires complex thinking and the GOP continues to display only the ability to think in dualisms. Not good!

He sounded like that little kid on the movie overboard bub bub baba baba ba ba ba they have no health care except to take it away from everybody

GOP...AMERICEN PEOPLE TAXPAYERS MONEY ROBIN ABUSE ON POLITICS PARTY FINACE ELCORTEZ CASINO MURDER OPERATIONS FINACE FOX'S NEWS AMERICAN TAXPAYERS MONEY FINACE ROBIN SPLIT THE AMERICAN PEOPLE TAXPAYERS MONEY WITH NANCY. PELOSI CHUCK SSHUMER

How does that work? Eliminate ACA except for PE conditions? That doesn't make sense either.

BULL, he is Lying, this bill would cost the people with pre-existing conditions how much more money!!!

The Louisisana Charity hospital system has killed more people than Hitler did. Mostly Black.

President Trump requests that you ensure Mental Illness is covered as a pre-existing condition.

Yeah he left out the part about no longer keeping your kids on your policy until age 26!

But we will have to sell our house to afford it 🔥🚨😡

How much more would they have to pay?

Thank you Dr.!

And let people be charged 3 or 4 times more for them? That is the GZoP answer. We may protect pre existing conditions but you will pay through the nose for the protection making coverage unaffordable.

u guys have no plans...we await u guys in 2020...senate and WH

Pubs try to label 'everyone being covered' as Socialism ... Most domesticated Nations use this form of 'socialism' to cover their people with healthcare (See Canada).. This doesn't mean that every aspect is socialist ... Get over the WORD people, and start thinking about care!

A Republican in favor of regulation?

🤣

Thus permanently segmenting the insurance market. People with pre existing conditions would be 'protected' but pay thousands. Typical GOP cruelty.

This is a great idea. Pre-existing condition protection & requiring insurance companies to allow children to 25 on their patents insurance are the best parts of the ACA.

U voted to repeal-not-replace 3x in 2017. You're flipping now? We need more than just coverage for pre-existing cond's. We need to protect M-care/M-caid/ACA/SocSec 100% & improve them. I was just denied MRI I got previously for 5 yrs straight 😡straight.

So embarrassing for Louisiana to have this senator.

Another lie!!!

My favorite part of seeing doctor turned politicians opining on health insurance policy is that we learn that doctors have no idea how health insurance works.

RepChrisStewart are you willing to respond to Adam Schiff personally, like he did with you. I think it’s important as my representative to hear what you have to say about the chairman in public, on record.

BillCassidy has a naive grasp of health care legislation. Covering pre-existing conditions is just step 1. That matters little when private insurers establish sky-high premiums and deductibles, which are immoral, to reap millions in revenue each quarter. SinglePayer

Healthcare for all is coming soon! No more profits on my health. You are a disservice to America.

Whatever GOP words are CHEAPER than most

You sir are in the party of criminals and I cannot see how you can validate your Hippocratic Oath Do No Harm

“We all have pre-existing conditions” + “The government should just mandate that pre-existing conditions be covered” = Universal Healthcare, Billy

How will he pay of it?

What about everything else? OMG these Repubs just suck.

Healthcare and Republicans are like oil and water. They don't mix. Any plan they come up with will cover as little as possible.

But the Republicans won’t control what insurance companies can charge people with pre-existing conditions, making insurance on affordable and the issue moot. They are full of shit.
